With regard to flash support, Ubuntu supports it more or less transparently and, if you want to use it on Fedora, you can spend the rest of your life on forums like this one. You don't really want me here forever, do you? The difference between Fedora and Ubuntu that really matters, and if you don't want to hear it, just stop reading my posts, is that the people who use Ubuntu are generally more like the people who use Windows and Canonical knows it and caters to them. Red Hat (along with Fedora and its manifestly snotty community) turns up its nose at such users. It doesn't want them. Thus, if I need to find the *exact* Ubuntu driver for the very popular webcam I actually use, not only can I find it, but I can also find people who use it and talk about how to use it. If there are such users in the Fedora community, I have so far not encountered them. Red Hat threw its amateur users overboard to maximize shareholder value. A few loyal diehards hung on. This loyal diehard can no longer afford to.
